Advent Reads Day 15: A Home for the Holidays

Synopsis:"A Home for the Holidays is a heart-warming collection of romance stories set around the holidays. 12 writers, 12 different stories, 12 more reasons to celebrate Christmas."

My Review: As with any of these anthologies or collections, there are good stories and bad stories. Thankfully this one has a lot of good short stories. Some of the stories seemed to stick with the theme of finding a home, home being anywhere from an actual home to being simply the feeling of home, which was really a nice theme. I particularly like the story about the puzzle box and the soldier story. All of the stories were brief and a couple could be read in a sitting if you wanted and all of them were heartwarming.

My Rating: The great thing about anthologies is you find new authors you enjoy, the bad thing about anthologies is you find some stories are a waste of your time. This one had both so I give it a middle of the road rating of Two Paws and a Stump Wag.
